We won't go hungry even if Steve doesn't want to share his chocolates or sit in the same carriage as us girls!

Re: FMUKCON - Saturday, 20 April 2013 - London
Yep it's peace and quiet all the way for me, and you lot are always scoffing my chocolates so there are none left for me so it'll make a change that I'll actually get to eat them myself.Diane65 wrote:We won't go hungry even if Steve doesn't want to share his chocolates or sit in the same carriage as us girls!

Exactly!! I have b*ght 4 cereal bars, journey sweets (sherbert lemons), bitsa wispa and even pm'd the very same gentleman to ask which flavour muffin he would prefer and this is the response we get!!akh43 wrote:Us girls can stick together, all the more choccies for ussteve wrote:Yep it's peace and quiet all the way for me, and you lot are always scoffing my chocolates so there are none left for me so it'll make a change that I'll actually get to eat them myself.Diane65 wrote:We won't go hungry even if Steve doesn't want to share his chocolates or sit in the same carriage as us girls!
PS: Yogi and his OH will already be in London I am not leaving them out. Its just the lovely steve being anti-social in a carriage on his own and akh43, Betty Botter and myself being sociable and sitting together.

Sounds as though the fun will start as soon as you girls get together - what shape will you be in, though, by the time you reach London?
Re: FMUKCON - Saturday, 20 April 2013 - London
There are rumours Diane is taking a Mr. Motivator exercise cd for use after they have scoffed all the chocolates, muffins, sweets, cereal bars AND whatever the other ladies are taking along. For myself I will be bright eyed and bushy tailed from the relaxing journey in a carriage by myself.Ms Thrifty wrote:Sounds as though the fun will start as soon as you girls get together - what shape will you be in, though, by the time you reach London?

I suspected something of the sort, Steve - either that, or that Diane had arranged so packed a schedule that she would have everyone literally running all round London. But don't count your chickens - you are way outnumbered and those ladies may man-nap you and force you to sit with them and join in!steve wrote:There are rumours Diane is taking a Mr. Motivator exercise cd for use after they have scoffed all the chocolates, muffins, sweets, cereal bars AND whatever the other ladies are taking along.
